10 Thanksgiving Centerpieces that You Can't Kill

In my younger days, I worked for the best floral shop in San Leandro, CA. 

My Boss, was a very petite French Canadian woman called Marge. 

She once commented in the late 80's that no one celebrated

Thanksgiving like they used to, the orders for Thanksgiving

arrangements were down and spirituality it made her sad.

Thanksgiving is a time to stop and say thank you to God and your family.

Just say Thank You.

Let's Bring Thanksgiving back!

Time to get out your old wreaths. What do you find? You wonderful wreath has missing flowers, fruits and ribbons.

That is exactly what happens to me every time, because the glue loosens over time. Plus the wreath could use a little sprucing up.

Well, let's take a look at what I have done.

Crochet for Fall Fashion

The wind is blustery with gray and white clouds streaming by my front porch. A lone leaf is tumbling down the sidewalk. It is a wonderful fall day. Football is on and all my children will be over for hamburgers and a great Browns game. I hope!

17 Outrageous Wind Chimes

Summer isn't over just yet! There are many good days and nights, especially now that it is almost fall. There will be a nip in the air and sitting outside will be delightful. I am not a fan of heat and humidity, my hair doubles in size and it curls in some unnatural ways. I must say I love fall! I do hang out outside a bit more in the fall so I like to add a little color. Wind Chimes are a good way to add color and some of these are a work of art, so, let's take a look. Some of them you can use as inspiration and some you will just have to droll over on pinterest.
